View of the Byers-Evans House Museum at 1310 Bannock Street in the Civic Center neighborhood of Denver, Colorado (1989; restoration by Long Hoeft Architects). The two-story Italianate-style house was built in 1883 for William Newton Byers, founding editor of the Rocky Mountain News. The house has iron cresting, a second story enclosed porch, corbeled chimneys and pointed window lintels. A sign in front of the museum reads: "Byers Evans House Museum" and "A Property of the Colorado Historical Society." William Gray Evans, son of Colorado Territorial Governor John Evans, purchased the home in 1889. The house museum is owned by the Colorado Historical Society. The North Building of the Denver Art Museum is in the distance.
